Dow Jones Tech Titan Alphabet Offers New Buy Point, But These Key Flaws Remain

Alphabet is highlighted as a key stock to watch as major indexes rose, despite the prior session’s weaker market tone. The article says GOOG/GOOGL has formed a cup-with-handle base with a 384.48 buy point and is trading about 10% below that level, while shares rose 0.3% on the day. Investor caution remains elevated because the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite weakened Tuesday, and IBD recommends only 60%-80% stock exposure. The piece also frames Alphabet’s long-term upside around YouTube, cloud growth, and Waymo, but notes concerns such as a weak relative strength rating and expected 27% annual earnings decline in 2027. The article additionally mentions Amphenol, Astronics, and SK Hynix as watchlist names, with AI/data-center demand supporting chip and networking-related stocks.
